Aquaponic grow lab

[self]

I use this diluted at least 50/50 as a preventative, along with AcT.

I've got Mayan jaguar lettuce, watercress, onions, eggplant, huge holy basil bushes that grow into the light every day, pereskiopsis cacti, and one lophophore grafted to pereskiopsis, also radishes, more basil, cilantro...could be some other stuff lost in there too, its a jungle...

Cannatonic, and my best sweetest Cindy x sweet tooth 4, at five weeks. She smells effing delicious, like those little sweet dried blueberries in breakfast cereals...mmmmm! Hope it sticks around and carries through on taste!

Had some trouble with my auto siphon this week, but I think I figured it out. My pipes were pretty slimed up, so flow was down. Cleaned the pipes, and voila! I love the sound of the siphon kicking in.
I bought two medium sized Plecos to keep my tank cleaner, hopefully problem solved.

Awesome! There aren't a lot of cannabis growers running aquaponics, I've always wanted to try it out myself but haven't had the cajones. I'll be following along dude.

Thanks big Jon, I don't really have much cannabis in the system right now, just some cuttings rooting. But I pump about a third of my sump/reservoir out through nursery sprayers every few days. I've had the best results transplanting slow seedlings/small plants into the grow bed. They explode with growth and quickly put up many tops! I may use this as a way to speed up growth goin into veg, not mention its like a natural supercropping.
I use Velcro tape to tie down my plants to my fabric pots!
It works so great, is endlessly adjustable, reusable, gentle, etc.
I'd like to eventually get a dwc going with individual beds/buckets/drums for the plants...
Thanks for visiting!

Self this so cool.
A Bro., and I are in the process of building an aquaponic Vegetable system.Been doing a lot of research on Youtube.
I of course have also been thinking bout Eventually putting Marry in there too.
But wondered about the flower stage,whether there were any organic Bloom enhancers that would not harm the REAL GARDENERS,,,, the fish. Im so lazy.HEHeh.

Then reading on, and whatda ya know,,, in pops RM auquagrower.

I was wondering what meters you use to test your water chemistry?

I dont usually use a ph meter on anything except when Im soaking peat pucks to take cuttings. Then I adjust to 6.5.
